Game soon

As seen in the Facebook group for Heroic Cthulhu! www.facebook.com/groups/940791852719977/ (If you don't have a Facebook account due to paranoia, make one for and of your character! Hell yeah!)


We're going to be getting closer to scheduling a HC game soon. We need a table and chair - the one I've got is killing my back doing it for a few minutes so hours is fucking out. After I buy that stuff, Matthew Lunn gets to pick the date and time. (He's paying so it is his call).

Not sure what it will be but assume England time as that's where we're going to be playing from. I'll put up the times and it will be first come first serve but I'm going to try to get as many involved as possible. (In other words, if we have six people and six slots over three days then each person will get one slot. But I won't advertise to people (yet) who aren't looking at the FB or HC boards feeds.) It could be during a week day or weekend. Not sure - it's totally up to Matt and he works fucked up hours (4 on 2 off or some such).

I will announce it on the HC boards ( heroiccthulhu.proboards.com/ )when it comes so keep an eye on those if you want in.

Special notes: If you are wanting to get in on a game and are wondering 'what can I do now':

To do this game you will need both a good web cam and microphone. I'm also going to be getting that equipment (as well as a fucking table) in the very near future. Get that shit ready - it is not optional. I will do the same and work on testing mine out with Matt before the game. I suggest getting yours tested before the game as well.

(Also, let me know if you need help beyond the usual cheering and chanting)

I am ready with the required gear anytime. Just let me know when a session will be scheduled.

Yep yep yep.

Essentially, in this new game my current plan is three people. One will always be the patron (in this case Matt) and then two more.

I've decided to cap it at three at any time simply because when you go to four, you really only gain a half person. Five and you are still at three and a half people. Fuck that, I'm sticking with three.

Essentially, all of the players will be more like unpaid actors than what people normally think of as players. I'm going to do things like try to get players with other players who seem to have better synergy and stuff like that. Also, the patron gets a big say in who gets to game. (In the future, other people may decide they want to become patrons. Then I will become the wandering GM). Plus, we may have contest winners, big money contributors and - well, shit I'm dreaming of the future right now.

We're putting on a show. The players give up all rights to anything by playing it - but they get a game they don't have to pay for.

It will be interesting to see how it works out.

I suspect the first session will be Matt and I trying to work out the 'what the fuck is up with this new program' and all that shit. I am planning on working with him (and his weird work schedule) to find out what days the game will go on.

Looks like we will be using google hangouts and roll20 at the same time. Roll20 is having technical issues right now. It can do everything except video with pictures.

There will be a game on THUR from Noon till SIX PM London time.
